Good morning everyone, I found that split body option is very atractive for a way of designing for my company and i would like to introduce it for other designers. Before i do that, i need to solve one problem and thats why im asking you for help. Problem:I have part with M10 holes in pattern and i want to divide this part in two separately with SPLIT BODY option. After dividing a part i use CREATE PART FROM BODY to save new part. Everything is ok until i open new part. new part is missing surfaces (for example - threads of M10 holes). I cannot find any solution for this problem. If anyone has idea how to copy it or at least, how to mark thread after split body divinding, i will be very grateful. FYI, i work in CREO 7. best regards,Szymon Biela
Hello, In Creo Manufacturing, I would like to use Auto-Drilling for counterbored screws. Does anyone have experience with how to input the hole dimension values into a Custom cycle, or alternatively, in which drilling cycle could I input these values from a table? Thank you in advance for your assistance.
How do I implement something like the video linked below in Creo Parametric?Please explain in detail how to implement it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_IxaoZpBjk
Hello,After you added a normal assmbly 3D model as a "module variant" in a configurable module ;When you use "Variant builder" in a configurable product to select the normal assembly;Normally, Creo will use the exist assembly model to build the new main assembly model( product variant),But in some cases, the Creo always copy a new model to build the main assembly. Would any one know :How to control "Variant builder" to copy a new one or use exist "module variant" to build the new product variant? Thank you!
Hello, I am making an assembly with particularly small components. I am using the slider function to set a position and I need it to be more accurate than the 3 sig figs that are standard. I tried going into the settings to change it to 5 sig figs but it still auto rounds to 3 sig figs. Is there a setting that I am missing or a work around I can use? I am using CREO parametric 7.0
Hi Guys can we add custom symbol in Dimension Text?if any one knows pls let me know. regards Aravind
I have been having this problem for two days now, as I have a drawing document which contains several drawings which I have to convert to PDF separately (Creo 7.10.0.0). I have tried several options, the first one is through print I have selected to print (blue image) but at the moment of checking the PDF seems too small, it appears white or just nothing, I have tried to change the scale, the zoom, format, size, Plot and nothing works. The other option was to go to document>save as PDF and it converts all the drawings into a single page. I don't have the option to choose the area to convert to PDF, it just automatically converts everything in one sheet in PDF. I have searched on youtube but I can't find a solution.I need to select the area to convert to PDFThanks in advance
Hey, I'm trying to make a simulation on Creo Flow Analysis and verify how far a particle is launched by colliding with a rotating part, similar to a fan. What I have tried so far was to make one domain with the fan and where the particles exists, made everything spin and released the particles in the middle, that created a motion but it doesn't match the real blade motion related to the particles.Then I've tried splitting the domain, but when I added the detached domain, as fluid domain and tested with solid domain too, the particles just ignored it, but affected the air motion (only in fluid domain, I've made it rotate faster and it interfered with the particles trajectory). So the problem is, how can I make a rotating object to collide with the particles without interfering the place where the particles are released? The particles may be released at any position above the rotating fan. There is a way to make particles interact with multiples domains?Ther
Hi,recently bought the printer mentioned. today i'm working with the software provided by the printer manufacturer for the sake of adding support & slicing etc. As a next step I would like to print the model directly trough Creo ( 11 ). did any of you have an experience with that ? any specific tips or suggestion ? Many thanks,
CREO 9.0 student version says license lost. I klick retry a warning comes up then then CREO crashes. I have tried doing a new install but nothing changes, I suspect there is something wrong with the license but can't get a new one.
This is driving me crazy. It seems to start happening at random, and it goes away randomly too. See the video. Im trying to rotate the part. The second I click on any of the rotate handles in the 3d dragger, the part moves and I cant control it anymore, meaning I keep clicking and it keeps moving, and I cant get it to rotate the way I want (or at all). Im on 8.0.8.0 Any idea how to make this go away? thx(view in My Videos)
hi, I have a problem with the extrusion of this component. I created the snail through the boundary blend, now to create the straight part of the inlet I'm making an extrusion but I would like this not to intersect the blend so as to leave a void at this point:
Hello, I have a multibody part (prt0001) that is a clam shell design containing two bodies. I want to create two drawings - one of one half of the part (Body 1), and one for the other half (Body 2). Any solutions that I haven't tried below would be much appreciated! Thank you in advance 🙂 I attached the part and drawing I am referencing below. I have some solutions, but none of them are exactly what I want:1. Create a new part that references the Body in prt0001. (This is less than ideal because you cannot bring in any dimensions from the original part. All dimensions must be manually placed, which is a lot of unnecessary work).2. Create two drawings for prt0001 containing both bodies. Hide all bodies you don't want to see when you are ready to export. (However, this stinks because the user needs to remember to hide other bodies, and then hide other bodies in the model. Far less than ideal, especially if you are working on both parts at one time).3. I tried using C
How do you move the location where the note starts in a mm drawing template? In our inch drawing template the note starts where we want (in the upper left corner). However, in our mm drawing template the note starts in the lower left corner. It isn't hard to move, but we want it to start in the same place everytime. Thanks!
Check out this video on Creo "What's New in Creo 11" from PTC Application EngineersPresenters: Lino Tozzi (Solution Consultant, Fellow) and Ryan Butcher (Solution Consultant, Fellow)Original Date Presented: May 21, 2024 To dive deeper into the subject, check out Creo "What's New in Creo 11".
We use the PRO_MP_MASS parameter for our weight calculation and as a value on our drawing.To ensure everybody is executing the mass calculation the setting mass_property_calculate is set to report_outdateness_only (or check_upon_save). A warning For normal assemblies these settings are ok.But in assemblies where we use flexible component (e.g. a spring or a folded flexfoil) the mass properties of the assemblies keep outdated every time the assembly is opened. Even a bottom up mass calculation of all parts and finally the assembly will not help. Because after closing and re-open the assembly, the assembly shows "outdated mass properties".How to solve, or block this?
I have similar question to this, but different. Lets say my assembly has the following structure: MAIN ASSEMBLY --SUBASEEMBLY1 --PART1 (inside SUBASSEMBLY1) --PART2 (inside SUBASSEMBLY1) --SUBASEEMBLY2 --PART3 (inside SUBASSEMBLY2) --PART4 (inside SUBASSEMBLY2) I want a note to say the name of highest level model tree element, not the lowest level. The method described in this topic results in lowest level item appearing in the note: if i point it to PART1 then the note says pn of PART1 I want to show the PN of the highest level model tree item PN to where the pointer is attached. So my goal is to attach the note to PART1 or PART2 and have the note saying the PN of SUBASSEMBLY1 I am using expression: &PTC_WM_NUMBER:att_mdl I am on Creo 9 Is this possible? If not directly, then any are there any workarounds how to achieve this? Thank you!
I need to create a mapkey to create the name of 2D drawing based on the 3D part but adding some extra strings on it for example,If the 3D part name is V132000430010, then when I call the mapkey it will create a 2D drawing named DV1320004300100-000 that means I need to add D< Genereted name >0-000.

Hello, I have some performance issues with Creo working with Windchill:When I open an assembly 3D model with Windchill, sometimes it takes a very long time (about 15 minutes), but other times it is quite fast.So, I checked the trail file to find out what happened when Creo opened slowly.The trail file shows:(the codes are changed verytime)After Creo loads "jc120301000a98," it tries to load some items from my local disk, taking 15 minutes.My questions are: What are these local items?Why does Creo try to load them from my local file system (the directory is where my "config.pro" is located)?Why does it sometimes take a long time and other times load very fast? Is there a method to avoid the long loading times?When I try to open this assembly 3D model in a local folder, Creo also tries to load these items.And here is the structure tree:
The result for the steady-state temperature (modeling it numerous different ways) is consistently T=364 K. But the result according to Power=s*e*A*T^4 should be T=314.63 K when I use:A=Area=1m^2 (modeled as a solid or as a surface sphere using shell elements)e=emissivity=1.0Power=power generated within Sphere= 1000W The assumption is this is a sphere in space that does NOT have any solar flux adding heat to it.Why is the answer so different from theoretical? I'm needing to use thermal radiation for the first time for some space equipment and am wondering whether there is a way to do things that will yield correct results for radiation. Thanks. I am using Creo 11.0
Have something weird going on, only applies to a certain assembly.Its linked to the group i think.Any of the sub assembly items within that group, i cant change its view status (Ctrl +h / Hide button)I can hide the group as a whole, just not the individual items inside that group. When i try to do that the "hide/view" icon changes (the strike through on the eye appears/disappears) but the actual items are still visible.i can also hide parts inside those sub assemblies individually.I can also use other groups inside this assembly as normal, only on the one group.I cant see anything different within layer tree either.

HiUsing Creo Parametric 10.0.1.0Wanting to know if theres a way to rename dimensions and show them in the sketch view.So far have tried 2 methods, which do not show in the sketch view itself.the first being the "dimesion text" that also shows in a drawing, the second being the dimension name (then toggling the "switch dimensions under model or tools tabs) As an example, this dimension "160 wide" is also labelled as wide, inside sketcher it shows as only 160 or "sd4" (the original name before renamed)
Hi All, Has anyone had any success with the Modecheck DRW_TABLE_CELLS? I have an issue where I need to use tables in my default format so that parameters in there will update correctly in the drawing, But this leaves them open to "tinkering" by the end user. I'm trying to use this check to identify the metadata table then verify some of the key cell values in there have not been overwritten (i.e. &PTC_WM_LIFECYCLE_STATE hasn't been replaced with "RELEASED", OR THE :d AND :mdl getting mixed up has been an issue) So far I've been able to get errors on every table that does not conform to the conditions, rather than the 1st value being an identifier, Thanks in advance for any thoughts or past experience shared 🙂 Dave.
I recently downloaded a conveyor belt from the “Traceparts” website and constructed a frame for it. My problem is that I need the conveyor belt 3 times, just in different lengths. Is there a way to change the length of the conveyor belt without having to re-download it and have to build frame on it again? I would be very grateful if you help me. 🙂 (Creo version used: 7.0.3)----------------------------------------------------------Translated the text from German to English using google translate.Subject - Größe eines Bauteils ändern in Creo ParametricBody - Hallo zusammen!🤗Ich habe mir vor kurzen von der Website "Traceparts" ein Förderband heruntergeladen und ein Gestell dazu konstruiert.
